6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 642f89daa34567d02f312d03e41523a894906dae ]
Wiphy should be locked before calling rdev_get_station() (see lockdep
assert in ieee80211_get_station()).
This fixes the following kernel NULL dereference:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000050

This happens because STA has time to disconnect and reconnect before
batadv_v_elp_throughput_metric_update() delayed work gets scheduled. In
this situation, ath10k_sta_state() can be in the middle of resetting
arsta data when the work queue get chance to be scheduled and ends up
accessing it. Locking wiphy prevents that.
